Creating New Pages

You will not be able to create a new page unless you are logged in. To prevent duplication please check carefully that there isn't already a similar page where your content could be added.

To create a new page, you first have to create a link to the new page in an existing related page. Clicking on the

  1. Login
  2. Create an internal link in the text of the page you want to link to. Remember to include the appropriate namespace in the new page name. E.g. Tutorial:New Page. Save the change you've made.
  3. The new link will be highlighted red, click on the link and you will be taken to the editing space for the page you want to create.
  4. Put in your page title and sub-headings. Then add your content.
  5. Scroll to the bottom of the page to save the new content.

For each new page you create you will also have created a linked discussion page.


Crumb trails

You don't need to add a crumb trail yourself. The administrator will in time add this to your page to help users navigate between pages.However, if you wish to add a crumb trail to your own page, these have to be hard coded into the page content. These should mimic the structure used in other pages of a similar level within the particular namespace.

The basic code however is given below, you may cut and paste this code and edit the Page Names as necessary.

Crumb trail

[[Main Page|SASSA Home Page]] ⇒ [[NameSpace:Main|Name Space Home Page]] ⇒ [[NameSpace:2nd Order Page 
Name|Page Title]] ⇒ Title of this page

New links should be added as necessary.

Back button

<div style="align: left; float:left; margin-top: -1.25em; margin-bottom:3px; background-color: #f5faff; 
padding: .2em .6em; font-size: 130%; border: 1px solid #cee0f2;"><span style="font-size: larger; font-weight: 
bold;">←</span> '''Back to [[NameSpace:Page Name|Page title]]'''</div>

Forward button

<div style="float:right; margin-top: 0.0em; margin-bottom:3px; background-color: #cee0f2; padding: .2em .6em; font-size: 
130%; border:1px solid #A3B1BF;"> '''[[NameSpace:Page Name|Forward: Page title]]''' <span style="font-size: larger; font-
weight: bold;">→</span>
<div style="clear:both"></div>

Formatting

  • Below the crumb trail you should leave one empty line, then add a horizontal line (top right button in the editing page pane), followed by another empty line before putting in the page heading.
  • Leave three empty lines between the end of your content and the code for the back browser button. Otherwise the button will float over your text.
  • Leave an empty line between the back button and the forward button if one is being included.
